Hey Dom, thanks for the reply.
You're right, 2 is possibly scraping the barrel a bit but personally I feel 6 would be overkill. The windows backup server (BackupExec 11d) for example is connected to a Dell Powervault LTO3 changer (8 slots) and we cope without a problem. I will put down 4 LTO 3's and then if more are needed I will order. But yes, the 2TB is for a full weekend backup. Nightly inc's are usually around the 300~400GB range. Any particular reason for the slow output from the Windows client's? I can pretty much saturate the 1GB link (private backup LAN) currently on the clients without too much trouble. Looked at the T2000, nice little box. Any particular config (CPU/RAM/HDD's)? This project is likely to go ahead in the next 4~6 weeks so not too sure on timelines for NB 6.5 or x64 support. Cheers, Dale _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - [email protected] http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
